2D Shapes Resources

Get those bodies moving and make some patterns. This lesson uses fine and gross motor skills to teach your students about AB patterns.

Shape up your students' understanding of geometrical attributes with this hands-on maths lesson. Students will gain a better understanding of how to describe a shape by the number of edges and vertices it has, rather than by its name.

With this activity, students will identify shapes, build 3-D shapes, and practise describing shapes with a partner.

Shapes don't have to be puzzling. With this lesson, your students will learn shape names and shape identification as they put these simple puzzles together.

Give your students some early practise with shapes using this simple lesson. Young learners will have a great time creating shapes using pieces of string.

Students will get hands-on practise by building shapes with pipe cleaners in this lesson all about the defining attributes of rectangles. Use as a stand alone lesson or with the **Shapes for year one** lesson plan.

Students will work hard to build shapes with straws in this hands-on lesson about the defining attributes of triangles. Use alone or with **Know Your Shapes.**
